I am very familiar with Earlyword, NPR Books, and the PW Calendar. In my FTE, I work in selection. The Earlyword website is the most useful website I cna think of for Selection work. The site not only gives everyone a heads up for the big titles, it helps librarians stay on top of what books are being turned into films, what titles have been nominated for the "big" awards and it even includes video clips of "hot" author interviews. Maurice Sendak interviewed by Clobert - funny!!
My absolute favorite feature of this website is the end of the year TOP BOOKS posts. The website compiles into one excel spreadsheet all the TOP BOOKS lists from all the major sources. It is a one stop reference tool.
